Surgical management of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms.
Review in Annals of Saudi medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms are relatively rare entities, representing approximately 1% to 2% of all pancreatic tumors. Owing to their rarity as well as their relatively indolent natural history, treatment approaches are not yet standardized. A formal pancreatic resection is usually mandatory for large and localized sporadic pancreatic tumors or in the presence of symptoms. However, in small and asymptomatic lesions, a conservative approach consisting in a careful wait-and-see policy is going to appear as more appropriate, particularly when, to remove the lesion, an aggressive surgical procedure is required, such as pancreaticoduodenectomy or distal splenopancreatectomy, depending on the localization of the tumor. Surgery has also a significant role in locally advanced and metastatic forms. In the setting of MEN 1 syndrome or Von-Hippel Lindau disease, the tumor size and the possible symptoms should be considered in the evaluation of a proper treatment.
